WEBVTT 00:00.120 --> 00:04.710 High there and there's video we're going to crop a bike inside a later hour. 00:04.800 --> 00:09.300 But really we want to look at the color blending and we can see how the image of blending with the background 00:09.300 --> 00:11.580 would offset a little bit color looks cool. 00:11.640 --> 00:15.510 Let's learn how to do that now using blending modes in Illustrator. 00:15.840 --> 00:19.370 All right first up open up the file called blending modes. 00:19.410 --> 00:24.420 You don't have to just an orange box you could draw your own and it doesn't quite work as well with 00:24.420 --> 00:27.760 like say solid black or solid white color blaming modes. 00:27.780 --> 00:30.030 Interact with them differently from Colors. 00:30.210 --> 00:34.260 OK so what I first want to do is my left hand with the image inside. 00:34.290 --> 00:35.820 So easy to do right. 00:35.880 --> 00:38.100 And so I'm going to grow my type 2. 00:38.790 --> 00:41.120 I'm using Muzio Saens rounded. 00:41.130 --> 00:41.550 I love it. 00:41.550 --> 00:42.870 Such a cool font. 00:42.870 --> 00:47.900 Whenever you do in font sizes as well if you want to have so big I hold down shift and hold down the 00:48.030 --> 00:55.740 OCHI on a PC or the option kinematic to go Ropeik with the phone rather than using the option of hand. 00:55.790 --> 00:57.000 Takes too long. 00:57.100 --> 01:04.950 Next thing I want to do is I want to bring in my image and resize my command shift P is place will control 01:04.950 --> 01:11.490 shift P on a PC picking the bike images click place and click and drag it so it's it's bigger than the 01:11.490 --> 01:12.100 latah. 01:12.140 --> 01:13.970 It just has to be covering it up. 01:14.080 --> 01:16.430 OK then you need to sit at the back OK. 01:16.470 --> 01:23.520 Right click and arranged in the back select both of them and command 7 K or control 7 on a PC that makes 01:23.520 --> 01:24.450 a clipping mask. 01:24.750 --> 01:29.040 And so that's the kind of basics right now we're going to play with the way it belongs with the backgrounds 01:29.040 --> 01:29.920 with the slick. 01:30.150 --> 01:33.440 I'm going to go over here to Posetti and this is the option here. 01:33.540 --> 01:37.010 So where is normal Chardon going to multiply. 01:37.080 --> 01:40.810 She will do is move this over so you can zoom in. 01:40.950 --> 01:44.310 And when we do it it's so that you can kind of see it easier. 01:44.400 --> 01:45.210 What color. 01:45.210 --> 01:49.820 Now it would paint if you got like green in the background these weren't all do the exact same. 01:49.880 --> 01:52.890 OK so if you got a different image it might look different. 01:52.890 --> 01:56.210 So don't count on these 100 percent what they're going to do. 01:56.220 --> 01:58.390 It's all a bit of experimentation. 01:58.390 --> 02:01.720 Now I quite like the overlay and multiply that comb. 02:01.920 --> 02:09.270 Now don't be afraid to use combinations that say we want to use overlay but also multiply song to make 02:09.270 --> 02:11.980 a duplicate of this Whateley. 02:12.050 --> 02:17.250 It still works right but with it over here it's not interacting with the orange background so it's still 02:17.250 --> 02:17.740 overlay. 02:17.790 --> 02:23.400 Anyway this guy here I'm going to change back to multiply and don't be afraid to play with you it has 02:23.400 --> 02:28.830 to be as well if a fellow is a bit strong you can just drag the PSAT as well and you can lay them on 02:28.830 --> 02:29.610 top of each other. 02:29.610 --> 02:33.480 So you guys laying on top can they cut a kind of a combo deal. 02:33.480 --> 02:35.270 Don't be afraid to offset them as well. 02:35.370 --> 02:42.660 You might do some sort of cool like you know misprint and mis registration kind of 3D ish kind of you 02:43.000 --> 02:47.040 know it anyway so that is playing with blending modes. 02:47.040 --> 02:51.900 We've done it with images but you can do it with just colored text and you'll get different effects. 02:51.900 --> 02:54.020 And this is where I sit now. 02:54.250 --> 02:59.340 Class exercise what I'd like you to do is I want you to create your own letter with image. 02:59.340 --> 03:04.440 You can use any of the other images from the exercise files Keds a few the bikes and you could use your 03:04.440 --> 03:09.830 own you're enjoying later and your own background color and your own blending modes you can offset it. 03:09.830 --> 03:12.840 You don't have to maybe you do a range where we did the whole bit. 03:13.030 --> 03:17.160 OK I'd like to see what you do remember reach out to me on Instagram on Twitter. 03:17.160 --> 03:17.960 I'd love to see it. 03:17.970 --> 03:23.450 Also Postol projects on this Web site so that other people can see what you've done. 03:23.730 --> 03:24.120 All right. 03:24.120 --> 03:26.330 Go and do some blending mode magic.
